4.24

阿闍世王。既害父已身生惡瘡。邪見六臣惑言六師能治王病。耆婆白言。唯佛能治。王聞佛欲涅槃。悶絕躄地。世尊大悲。入月愛三昧放清涼光。往照王身身瘡即愈。王與夫人國民五十八萬。往拘尸城。佛為說法。所有重罪即時微薄。王及夫人婇女皆同發菩提心。遶佛三匝辭退還宮。

After King Ajātaśatru murdered his father, malignant sores broke out all over his body. Six ministers of wrong view deluded him by saying that the six heterodox masters could cure the king's disease. Jīvaka said, 'Only the Buddha can cure it.' When the king heard that the Buddha was about to enter nirvāṇa, he fainted and collapsed to the ground. The Bhagavat, with great compassion, entered the Moon-Loving Samādhi and emitted a cooling light that went forth to shine upon the king's body, whereupon his sores immediately healed. The king, along with his consort and five hundred and eighty thousand people of the kingdom, went to the city of Kuśīnagara. The Buddha preached the Dharma for them, and all his heavy transgressions were instantly lightened and diminished. The king, his consort, and the palace women all generated the bodhimind together, circled the Buddha three times, took their leave, and returned to the palace.
